DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE | Fun Moments with Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman

Ryan Reynolds pays tribute to Fox's "weird" and "risky" Marvel universe, thanks to the studio where Deadpool began.

"This isn't just Deadpool saying, 'Oh, Hello' to the MCU. It's Deadpool — and Hugh, Shawn, and I — saying goodbye to a place and an era that literally made us," Reynolds wrote on Instagram. "We are forever grateful for the fun, weird, uneven, and risky world of 20th Century Fox. It was our origin story, and we wouldn't trade it for the world. And thank you to Kevin Feige and Disney for letting us share it."

Disney acquired then-20th Century Fox studios in 2019, which had produced the first two Deadpool films starring Reynolds. At the time, it was announced that Deadpool would be integrated into the MCU, starting with 2024's Deadpool & Wolverine , which is now the 6th-biggest opening at the domestic box office with $211 million. It also broke the record for the first weekend of an R-rated film at the box office
